In mathematics, the Browder–Minty theorem states that a bounded, continuous, coercive and monotone function T from a real, separable reflexive Banach space X into its continuous dual space X is automatically surjective. That is, for each continuous linear functional g ∈ X, there exists a solution u ∈ X of the equation T = g.

The theorem is named in honor of Felix Browder and George J. Minty, who independently proved it.
